Resumo: The aim of this study was to understand, face to the Gulliver Complex approach,how self-initiated expatriates from different backgrounds perceive the relationshipbetween Brazilian people and foreigners. The study, that is exploratory and qualitative,was carried out through semi-structured interviews with 33 self-initiatedexpatriates, 17 from developed countries and 16 from developing countries. The resultssuggest that the foreignism can be understood as an aspect of Brazilian culture,bipolar, where one pole is related to the care of the Brazilian with the foreigner, andthe other represents the arrogant behavior torward the foreigner, showing a relationshipof compensation, as represented in the Gulliver Complex. The results suggestthat behaviors of superiority or inferioriry cannot be explained only by the foreignernationality, but by the origin suggested by the physical appearance of the foreigner.

O estudo, de cunho exploratório e qualitativo, foi realizado por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas com 33 expatriados voluntários, sendo 17 de origem de países desenvolvidos e 16 de países em desenvolvimento. Os resultados sugerem que o estrangeirismo pode ser entendido como uma dimensão da cultura brasileira, bipolar, onde um polo representa a solicitude do brasileiro para com o estrangeiro, e o outro representa o comportamento arrogante, guardando entre si uma relação de compensação, compreendida no complexo de Gulliver. Os resultados sugerem ainda, que comportamentos de superioridade ou inferioridade não podem ser explicados apenas pela nacionalidade do estrangeiro, mas origem sugerida pela aparência física do mesmo.Núcleo de Pós-graduação em Administração, Escola de Administração, UFBA2013-10-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/revistaoes/article/view/8836Organizações & Sociedade; Vol. 20 No. 66 (2013)Organizações & Sociedade; v. 20 n. 66 (2013)1984-92301413-585Xreponame:Organizações & Sociedade (Online)instname:Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)instacron:UFBAporhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/revistaoes/article/view/8836/6294de Araújo, Bruno Felix VonborellTeixeira, Maria Luisa MendesMalini, Eliseinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2017-07-05T07:35:28Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufba.br:article/8836Revistahttp://www.revistaoes.ufba.br/PUBhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phpcandidab@ufba.br||revistaoes@ufba.br1984-92301413-585Xopendoar:2017-07-05T07:35:28Organizações & Sociedade (Online) - Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)false
